Ludacris, MTV Team Up to Dispel Myths about Sex

Ludacris really loves safe sex. For the second year in a row, Luda's got a hand in Trojan's Magnum Live Large Project, which is currently being voted on. A bunch of up-and-coming rappers performed at various locations around the United States or uploaded videos of themselves rapping to pre-recorded beats provided by Luda and Magnum for the chance to perform at Springfest 2011 with Luda and other artists. The point is to get the word out about safe sex while giving young artists a chance to shine.

But that's not enough safe sex promotion for this bigger than life artist. He does say he likes to do things big.

Luda joined MTV, the Centers for Disease Control, Catelyn from Teen Mom, Vinny Guadagnino from Jersey Shore and many others to film a special called “MTV's 10 Most Outrageous Sex Myths.” It's part of a campaign by MTV, the CDC, the Kaiser Family Foundation, Planned Parenthood Federation of America and other foundations called GYT (Get Yourself Tested). These organizations put together this special geared toward the U.S.'s young people, ages 25 and under, to dispel sex myths and raise awareness among young people in the hopes of changing the current trend. According to some research, about half of the STDs that occur in the U.S. each year are contracted by people under 25.
